ACT Education Minister Yvette Berry has resigned amid a damning Integrity Commission report revealing dishonesty in awarding an $18 million school renovation contract—despite two evaluation teams recommending Manteena, the contract went to LendLease to benefit the CFMEU, which the chief of staff was linked to. Berry, who served nearly 14 years, stepped down to avoid a prolonged public fallout, insisting she wasn’t involved in misconduct. Opposition leaders slammed the decision as a costly taxpayer loss, while Chief Minister Andrew Barr admitted the findings were serious and pledged reforms to boost accountability in public procurement.
